Beeing social, exploring new places and developing as a person is the best I can do for my self and I’m just grateful for this opportunity, even dough I miss running track and feeld with my friends like before..

AAM: How did you get into modeling? Were you scouted or did you go to see an agency?
Victoria:My mother agent found me while I was working in a local grocery store in trondheim, norway. I had just started working there and I remember I noticed that she was looking at me for a while..

AAM: If you could live anywhere on this awesome planet where would you build your dream home?
Viktoria:In New York City, a beautiful house in a deserted island would drive me mad after a week.

AAM: How do you spend your days when you’re not modeling?
Viktoria:Doing exactly what I want at the moment; it can be sitting in a park reading a book and listening to music, walking around the city, picniking, going to restaurants with friends or doing nothing in front of my computer in bed ..

It was video shoot for british artist. We were shooting mucis video to his new single. I worked as a lead girl there. I had to walk, dance and pose in a helmet consist from red plastic butterflys, black dress with 20 metres black cape and super high YSL hight heels infront of huge fan, which was twice bigger than me.

Since I became blonde, I have to take care about my hair more than usual. The most effective way to keep it healthy is to put flax oil or warm coconat oil on it. And leave it there at least for 2 hours or night which is even better. You may use any type of oil you like moroccan oil, jojoba oil and others. For the best result you can put a shower hat and towel on it for 2hours max.
